I hadn't thought of trying to look up the town clerk in the census. Corrections are always gladly accepted! Thanks Drew! I hadn’t thought of trying to look up the town clerk in the census.

Wood. I was able to verify this by checking the 1900 census of Gardner, where his occupation is listed as town clerk. Steve, one correction: The town clerk is Levi W. Wood.

The parents were apparently married in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, moved to Gardner, then to Worcester, and then to Sutton. By 1915 the father was working as a moulder in a (cast iron) foundry. After reading your comment, it just occurred to me that I've never been able to find the 1910 Census Record for this family. In 1920 and 1930, the family was in Worcester, but before finding the Birth and Death Records for Adam Skowronski, I didn't realize the family had ever lived in Gardner. I guess I should check the Census for Gardner! Barbara, I agree this is one of the saddest Death Certificates I’ve ever seen.

I see the father was a laborer. Steve,

I am wondering why they went to Gardner, it is such an out of the way place. What did the father do? The city is now known for their furniture outlets. What a sad death certificate.
